The final quarter in the America the Beautiful Quarters®
Program series
Honoring the Tuskegee Airmen
National Historic Site in Alabama. The reverse design depicts a Tuskegee
Airman pilot suiting up to join the fight during World War II with the Moton
Field control tower in the background. The pilot looks upward with pride and
confidence as two P- 51 Mustangs pass overhead. The inscription “THEY FOUGHT
TWO WARS” is arced across the top as a reference to the dual battles the Tuskegee
Airmen fought – fascism abroad and racial discrimination at home. Inscriptions
are “TUSKEGEE AIRMEN,” “ALABAMA,” “2021,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.”
One General George Washington
Crossing the Delaware Quarter featuring an obverse (heads) design that marks a
return to the familiar depiction of George Washington by John Flanagan as it
appeared on the quarter from 1932 to 1998. The image was modified for the 50
State Quarters, the DC and U.S. Territories Quarter, and the America the
Beautiful Quarters Programs. In this revived depiction, Washington’s portrait
is larger, and with higher relief. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE
TRUST,” and “2021.” The reverse (tails) design features General George
Washington commanding his troops through the overnight crossing of the
ice-choked Delaware River prior to the Battle of Trenton during the American
Revolutionary War. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,"
"E PLURIBUS UNUM," "CROSSING THE DELAWARE," and
"QUARTER DOLLAR.”
